Chad Williams+FollowUCLA’s new defensive weapon: Ben Perry’s big switchBen Perry’s move from Louisville to UCLA isn’t just a change of scenery—it’s a total position shakeup. Instead of sticking to safety, Perry’s now set to start as a linebacker, bringing his speed and hard-hitting style right into the heart of the Bruins’ defense. Coaches are betting that his versatility and aggressive play can help fix last year’s coverage woes and add a new edge to the lineup.
